“Just as probable is that it will be soo bad that he (Trump) can not sign it”

The way they are passing this, they only need simple majorities (50 votes in the Senate), so there is no real need to do anything according to socialist (oops, I mean Democratic Party) ideology.

It is the opportunity of a lifetime to make real market-based reforms.

All the more reason to kick back at the GOP-E swamp, if they do hand the President a steaming pile of big Government and a growing dependent class in their final version.

Like Charlie Brown and Lucy with the football, my hopes are rising again, right on cue. This is a real chance at meaningful redemption for the Republican Party. Maybe they will really deliver this time (because big donors want it too).

Really, there are so many powerful levers that could be in the tax bill - even if they screw up on some, it might still be a net positive. The anticipation is killing me...

I believe you are quite right about the Tax Cut Bill, its benefits for the economy, the ripe political opportunity it brings, even with accidental blemishes, and also the fearsome risk of more NeverTrump political mischief.
